In a meadow stands a flower Over whom most things atower And he is subject to the wily wind, A devilish thing which rescinds Then blows again like fans, Oscillating their hands
The flower crumbles under Emotive oppression, The wind pressing on him to go north He obeys the force which forces him And he flings back
In a trough or in a peak Rendered meek or weak The flower subject to whim Is put to death by the wind
Yet on another day still The wind falls through a hill Reaches the flower and Uplifts him with its farther hand
And in either case the flower, Broken down by the wind Or built up by it, Is nothing but a product thereof
Perhaps he could've grown stronger Maybe a good day would go on longer Perchance his dance with his oppressor Could resemble fixedness lesser
The wind possesses him yet blesses him It transfers its goodness and its malice His petals will be gifted with oxygen Or fly off, like ridden callous
an underdeveloped metaphor for feeling controlled by your emotions instead of the other way around
